We have been there and done that. We are broke. Stop. The last time we paid for this , instead of claiming the Moon for the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA we babbled about “mankind”. Mankind didn’t pay for it or pull it off. Until we drop all this globalist crap on the space program I shall resist.

I've always been a fan of the Dick Tracy Space Coupe myself.

They had some pretty silly stuff on that strip, like a portable telephone you could use as a TV. Like that'll ever happen.

All this yakkety-yak about how to get there, but why do we want to go back? What are we going to accomplish? What, exactly, is the mission?

Make the systems redundant. Separate cargo from people. Use remote control and autonomous tools as much as possible. Do everything from a base — land at the base, then fly to interesting locations from there. Have a plan to make money.
